Doesn't have to be. I am sure they can design something that would need it (talking about the comic book creators)

You really want a longer list? Fine

First Dr Doom PF
Xmen vs Sentinel dio 1
Iron Man Comiquette (the one with the fist down the ground)
First Predator maquette
Alien Warrior bust
First Thor PF
First Hulk PF
Alien Queen bust
Blade vs Dracula dio
All the classic horror bust

Should I continue?
Don't embarasse yourself more please, you know I'm right.

Ps: and yes even a leaning statue is still better than any Alien statue Sideshow has made these last 5 years

You must have missed where I said the conversation was over. Could have saved yourself from wasting time listing your favourite statues. Please continue if you wish though. You have a lot of typing to do if you want to convince me sideshows quality hasn’t continually gotten better over the last 20 years and the hundreds of statues they’ve released.

I didn't/don't own the quarter of them. Just have the chance to see them at my friend's house. And I can recognize that they are beautiful statues.
But nice try, again.

Edi: "continually gotten better" LOL. WOW.

Hahaha "living that box life". I think the calm portrait will display with my X-Men better because most of them I have are sideshow and they all have calmer portraits, except for my wolverine. I wonder if the laughing portrait would look good with the screaming wolverine and the new XM cyclops screaming torso.

And I've seen enough of them with my own eyes to know they're over rated. There are a couple that are stand outs, but on average, I would say paint apps are only the same or maybe slightly lower quality than SS.

I don't own any because I wouldn't pay a premium for something that I'm not overly impressed with. Prime 1 has that area covered and blows xm away at a similar and often lower price point here in NA.

Hilarious. Okay believe what you like. I'm just going to respectfully disagree. I have owned multiple XM pieces and their paint app has been way better not to mention the build quality on them feel premium and heavy unlike sideshows Statues which are hollow. Also when does Prime 1 start making X Men, Marvel, and Spider-Man? They are known predominantly for thier Arkham Pieces.

There is no right, or wrong on opinions. Not sure why people feel the need to attempt to force it on another followed with remarks that are not needed. Rogue Maquette topic?

I just hope she doesn’t go over $700.

I notice that Emma's base has a pretty large footprint as well.
